About this map

Chugach National Forest land defines this portion of the Kenai Peninsula, where a network of recreational and historic paths traverses the Kenai Mountains. This 2017 survey shows a landscape dominated by water and high-elevation relief, centered on the corridor formed by Juneau Lake and Trout Lake. The map details the infrastructure for modern backcountry travel, including the Resurrection Pass Trail and the Trout Lake Cabin, alongside the Swan Lake Cabin Trail.

The drainage patterns are meticulously recorded, showing how Juneau Cr and Falls Cr feed the central lakes, while the Chickaloon River flows through the northern reaches near Swan Lake. These waterways and their accompanying valleys have long dictated movement through the mountains, evidenced by the primary trail routes like the Bean Creek Trail that follow the natural topography past landmarks like Round Mtn.
